Point Lisas Desalination Plant to undergo maintenance

Customers in parts of central and south west Trinidad may experience low pressures, or in some instances an amended scheduled supply from today due to a cutback in production at the Point Lisas Desalination Plant.
This was confirmed in a statement by WASA on Wednesday morning.
The Desalination Company of Trinidad and Tobago – DESALCOTT owned and operated Plant, normally supplies WASA with 40 million gallons of water per day (mgd); however, this has been reduced to 26 mgd, due to emergency maintenance work on the filter system at the facility.
The work is expected to be completed by midnight on Friday and the plant restored to full production on Saturday.
WASA says it will publish amended schedules to areas affected over the course of this cutback in production.

Affected areas include: Caroni, Warrenville, Cunupia, Chaguanas, Caparo, Chase Village, Couva, Point Lisas, California, Claxton Bay, Plaisance Park, Pointe a Pierre, City of San Fernando, Vistabella, Marabella, Gasparillo, South West Union Hall, Pleasantville, Palmiste, Phillipine, Duncan Village, Esperance, Gulf View, Bel Air, La Romain, South Oropouche, Otaheite, Rousillac, Aripero, parts of La Brea, Avocat, Fyzabad, parts of Siparia including De Gannes Village and Quarry Village, San Francique, Debe, Syne Village, Lowkie Trace, Sunrees Road, Mora Dam Road.
